Missouri Tigers vs Ole Miss Rebels prediction
I’m not excited to lay double-digit chalk with an Ole Miss team that’s lost 3 straight games, but they’re at home where they’re 13-1 SU, and they’re the better team in this contest at both ends of the floor. The Missouri Tigers have not only lost 11 straight games, but they’re 5-19 ATS on the season. With a cover percentage of 20.8 percent on the season, only Pacific is worse at covering numbers in all of college basketball. There’s zero betting value with Missouri. No matter what you think of Ole Miss, I’m going to lay the chalk with the Rebels.
